Make It: Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Butter

I got a couple of comments on my last WIAW post asking about the dark chocolate pumpkin butter that I posted about. Well, I'm not one to disappoint so here it is! :)

Not only is this stuff incredibly easy to whip up but it is also addicting. I have been adding spoonfuls to my oatmeal, slathering it on toast, and sending Graham crackers for a dip. Word on the street is that this is great as an ice cream topping or spread onto waffles and pancakes! Let me know how you use it!

Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Butter
(I adapted this recipe from Life's Ambrosia. HERE is the original recipe.)

Stir all of the ingredients into a heavy bottomed saucepan and bring to a slight boil on medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and cook until it thickens, about 30 minutes. Make sure to keep an eye on it and stir frequently.

Remove from the heat and let the mixture cool. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks...if it lasts that long! ;)

Hey there, I'm Meridien and I like to eat. Usually healthfully but not always. Making a mess in the kitchen and finding new restaurants to try are just a couple of my favorite things. Hair metal and Crossfit are the other two, in case you're ever quizzed. Anyway, I hope that you'll join me at the table!
